Reply to Flat nature walks in wooded areas by water? by [deleted]
I have been following this for a couple of years; https://goo.gl/maps/v5n6EJ6MBwXpLN679 It is a list of places to walk, I would suggest reading the reviews and check out the terrain setting in the maps. Everyone else pretty much listed all of these places, but it is all in one link that you can follow if you have a Google Account.
I prefer going to Pony Pasture and walking around Half Moon Beach, quiet area, lots of trees, until the summer when it is warmer, then the road to the west of it along the river is always a beautiful walk with trees every now and then, I used to love it for photography.

CVS, Food Lion, gas station... As a retail worker I can assure you we don't give half a rats ass.

Because that’s the industry standard? Servers make around $2 an hour so the expectation is that patrons tip. I wish that wasn’t the case and that business owners pay a reasonable wage, but that’s not what’s going on. People handling to go orders could be on that end of the spectrum or they could be earning upwards of $15 an hour. As a customer, there’s no way to know without asking — my only point was to bring to light the concept that someone isn’t necessarily just handing you your food and expecting a tip. Tipping culture has gotten way out of hand for sure, but it’s not always black and white.

Buttermilk Trail is flat and near water! Lovely walk.
I'd recommend against Bryan Park; very hilly

Isn’t that what wages are for? Why should I subsidize a restaurant owner for not paying their employees?

I do not, but if you really want to surprise someone, R. L. Stine will be speaking at the Dominion Energy Center (a.k.a Richmond CenterStage) next Monday, the 23rd as part of the Poe Museum Centennial Celebration. If you play your cards right, you might be able to get him to sign some copies if they have any sort of meet-and-greet...

Blue Atlas is amazing. I cannot say enough great things about what they are doing there.

Kroger restroom is decent. Publix is better. The Daily has the best restrooms in Carytown.

Forest Hill Park has a bathroom but it’s always in incredibly bad shape and there’s a guy who usually sits on one of the two toilets all day long/seems to also live there

Appomattox River Trail Park in Southern Chesterfield is flat and along the river. I only saw a couple people the whole time I was in that park. It's a bit farther than 20 min from the city though.

If you’re downtown, you can always go to a grocery store like Kroger or Fresh Market. Other than that, you usually need to be a paying customer at a restaurant to use one of their restrooms.
